RE: [Xen-users] Error: Device 0 (vif) could not beconnected.Hotplugscripts not working

["Ian Tobin" <itobin@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Think i found it

 

Device drivers -à   <*> Xen backend network device

 

I have compiled the kernel with that option and now it works at last!

 

Thanks for the help guys

 

Ian

Hard link <*> Network Bridging and XEN-> Backend Drivers in Dom0 <*>
It fixes your config. That's all.

Non-working .config attached.

I have been doing my best to try and read up on the options that were setup differently in the working .config you sent me.

Do you know if JF setup some sort of wiki for configuring a xenified kernel?

Thanks.

Hi  Mike,
Submit your .config , please .  I  would suspect you just missed bridged networking
linking . I always tune manually configs for xenified and pvops kernels for about
1.5 years. Several times i asked for JF's support, but there were not network hotplug
issues

Boris.

I am using udev 0.125-7+lenny3 with a xenified 2.6.31.12 kernel. I was getting "Error: Device 0 (vif) could not be connected.Hotplugscripts not working" initially, but by using the .config provided thankfully by Boris (bderzhavets@xxxxxxxxx) with the exact same setup, the error went away.

I see you are using the PV OPS kernel though......
